Numerical Analysis of Fluid Mixing in a T-Shaped Micro Mixer
M. S. Virk, A. E. Holdø, and S. KaennakhamEnergy & Environmental Technology Applied Research Group, Faculty of Engineering and Computing, Coventry University, Coventry, UK
Microfluidic systems hold promise for many novel applications where rapid mixing is important, and has lead to a number of new developments.
Despite such major developments, no systematic study has been carried out to understand the effect of flow mechanisms and geometry on microfluidic mixing.
This work focuses on a mixing analysis of low Reynolds number (< 25) microfluids in a T-shaped passive micro mixer for different geometric and flow conditions using finite element base CFD simulations.

Grandeur of the Seas Cruise Review by purdo96: Great Ports, Great Staff, Overly Latin
Member Rating
Compare Prices on Grandeur of the Seas Panama Canal & Central America Cruises
Great Ports, Great Staff, Overly Latin
My wife and I have taken 7 previous cruises together, most of the trips with another couple that we have known since college. We have all traveled together worldwide and cruised in both the Caribbean and Europe. Three of us have been to 5 continents and my wife has been to all 7 continents. I say all of this to indicate that we are all open to new experiences, however the Latin influence on this cruise was a little too much.
First the good. The stops on this cruise were excellent. The ABC islands were why we booked this itinerary. We did dive all three islands and were blown away by the coral and sea life. (We didn't book our cruises through RCC, more on that later.) We also REALLY enjoyed Columbia, which was an unexpected bonus.
The staff on the boat was excellent, the bartenders in the champagne bar were really friendly and a pleasure to deal with. The same could be said for the restaurant service, we were very happy with the waiter and assistant More
The ship itself is aging, but in very good shape. We sailed Monarch of The Seas last year for a quick Bahama getaway and found it to be very outdated, but Grandeur wears its age well.
Now for the bad. The gym is slightly undersized for the size of the boat. However, there is at least a running track on deck 10 which allows you to get cardio in without waiting for a machine.
The food in the Windjammer was OK, but nothing to write home about most days. By the fourth day we began to see that the selections were not rotating very much, the menus were quite repetitive. This could be a result of the Latin influence on the cruise, as I have always found that the American tastes tend to be more varied.
The ship did not do a very good job of informing us of what the nightly entertainment would be in the Palladium theater. On most other ships we have always been able to find out easily what is playing that evening.
One other minor issue is that there is not a "quiet" bar on ship. I know I have been spoiled by the "Michael's Club" experience on Celebrity but this is the first ship I have been on where I felt there wasn't that type of space available to sit and have a quiet drink. (Some would argue the Schooner bar, but this was the only place on the ship where the dank stench of cigarettes was omnipresent.)
Now for the UGLY. Most of the ugly was not in the direct control of the cruise line. At some point RCC decided that since this was a cruise populated mostly by people from Central and South America the language of the boat would be Spanish. I have NO PROBLEM with that, however it seem to embolden the Spanish speaking guests to the point that they berated not only ship's staff but also guests that were not fluent in Spanish.
The boat did not offer scuba trips in Aruba or Curacao. The cruise was promoted on the website as being scuba friendly yet no dives were offered in the first two "dive" spots and only an introduction to scuba was offered in Bonaire. To make matters worse they decided to keep the ship on Panama time, not local island time (ABC is Eastern, Panama Central) which meant our arrivals were not at the time originally stated in the cruise documents. This meant that we missed prearranged dives because the boat got in an hour later than stated based on local time.
The "latin adjustment" also meant that the late dinner seating was 9:30. A little too late for most North Americas, but no worry as we could just take the 7:00 seating.
The problem was that the since the dinner was late pre and post dinner music in the cetrum was adjusted for their tastes as well and was played at earsplitting levels until 1:00 in the morning. A normal 8:30 seating would usually mean any entertainment on the boat was closed down by 11. We were on the stern of the ship and could hear the salsa rhythms as though they were in the next room. When I went to complain at the center desk the cruise representative could not hear me 4 feet away and I had to repeat myself 3 times, I think that proves the point.
Related to the music, there was no variety. I have been on many cruises and have found that people could always find a style that suited their tastes. Only 2 nights was the pre dinner music something other than salsa and NEVER was the post dinner music anything but salsa dance music. Even the Viking Crown lounge only had one night with top 40 music.
Embarkation and Disembarkation in Colon was not well organized. There was a general lack of orderly behavior at embarkation. The lines are there for a reason and RCC needs to enforce their use. I know that Latin culture is known to not respect the traditional ques but RCC is a professional organization and should not allow it to become such a mess. People pushing forward in line, agents not helping the next in line first, and people leaving the line and returning expecting to come back to their place is something we shouldn't have to deal with in the Platinum line. I can only imagine what it was like in the other lines. Less

Cabin review: JS7150
Good sized for a "junior" suite. Walk in closet and a bath tub which are great bonus items. The deck on the stern of the ship was SPECTACULAR in size. The only problem with the balcony deck was that it did tend to collect soot on the sea day from the diesel engines.
Port and Shore Excursions
We went on a two tank boat dive through the dive shop at the RIU resort. We did a wreck and a reef.
If I were to suggest skipping diving on any island it would probably be this one. There are other things to do on Aruba and the diving is MUCH better in Curacao and Bonaire.
In Santa Marta I strongly suggest getting off of the boat (seems most people did not) but stick with the boat's groups. The area is a little sketchy. We did a hike to the waterfalls and had a great time.

Journalists who cover the Supreme Court talked about about ways digital media have changed how they do their jobs. They mentioned several times justices' reluctance to allow cameras in the Court. Other topics included social media, the faster pace of getting stories out, and how online posting of Court case documents has allowed reporters to do their jobs from home rather than having to physically go to the Supreme Court building. The panelists answered questions from audience members following the panel discussion. close

Danziger Innovations Ltd. and Precision BioSciences, Inc. announced that they have successfully generated site-specific genome modifications in petunia and jasmine tobacco by combining Precision's Directed Nuclease Editor (DNE) gene editing technology with Danziger's MemoGene gene delivery system. This successful research effort was aimed at genetic control of flower color but researchers at Precision and Danziger believe that the approach can be used more broadly to address genome engineering challenges in plants that are recalcitrant to existing transformation methods without requiring the insertion of foreign DNA into the plant genome.
Nova Synthetix and Precision BioSciences, Inc. announced that they have initiated a joint research effort to generate non-GM, ricin-free castor plants using Precision's Directed Nuclease Editor (DNE) technology in combination with Nova Synthetix's proprietary plant transformation system. Scientists at Nova Synthetix and Precision also plan to utilize their joint capabilities to generate improved castor variants capable of producing user defined oil profiles for industrial, biofuel, and feed-directed applications. The companies believe that the successful development of this multi-year research effort will address a significant agricultural need and result in a castor plant that is safer and has far greater market utility.
Precision BioSciences and Agrivida revealed that they have entered into a trait development collaboration based on precise gene modifications made possible by Precision's Directed Nuclease Editor Technology. The collaboration recently delivered the first modified genes that are the subject of Agrivida commercialization efforts in the area of animal nutrition.

The antiquity of this region can be traced to approximately the 4th century BC. From 4th Century B.C. until AD 875, Maharashtri Prakrit and its Apabhraṃśa was the dominant language of the region. Marathi, which evolved from Maharashtri Prakrit, has been the lingua franca of the people of this area from the 9th century onwards. The oldest stone inscriptions in Marathi language can be seen at Shravana Belgola in modern day Karnataka at the foot of the Bahubali Statue (Jain). And, in the course of time, the term 'Maharashtra' was used to describe a region which consisted of Aparanta, Vidarbha, Mulak, Ashmak (Assaka) and Kuntal. The tribal communities of Nags, Munds and Bhills inhabited this area, also known as Dandakaranya, in ancient times. They were joined by the Aryas, the Shakas and the Huns, who came from the North, as well as by foreigners, who arrived by sea.[1]

Maharashtra during 4th century BC-12th century[edit]
The region that is present day Maharashtra was part of a number of empires in the first milinium. These include the Satavahana dynasty, the Vakataka dynasty, the Chalukya dynasty and the Rashtrakuta dynasty. And Most of these empires extended over a large swathes of Indian territory. Some of the greatest monuments in Maharashtra such as the Ajantha and Ellora Caves were built during the time of these empires. Maharashtra was ruled by the Maurya Empire in the 4th and 3rd century BC. Around 230 BCE Maharashtra came under the rule of the Satavahana dynasty which ruled the region for 400 years.[2] The greatest ruler of the Satavahana Dynasty was Gautamiputra Satakarni who defeated the Scythian invaders. The Vakataka dynasty ruled from c. 250–470 CE. The Satavahana dynasty used Maharashtri Prakrit and Telugu Languages while the Vakataka dynasty patronized Maharashtri Prakrit and Sanskrit. The Chalukya dynasty ruled Maharashtra from the 6th century to the 8th century and the two prominent rulers were Pulakesi II, who defeated the north Indian Emperor Harsha and Vikramaditya II, who defeated the Arab invaders in the 8th century. The Rashtrakuta Dynasty ruled Maharashtra from the 8th to the 10th century.[3] The Arab traveler Sulaiman called the ruler of the Rashtrakuta Dynasty (Amoghavarsha) as "one of the 4 great kings of the world".[4] The Chalukya dynasty and Rashtrakuta Dynasty had their capitals in modern day Karnataka and they used Kannada and Sanskrit as court languages. From the early 11th century to the 12th century the Deccan Plateau was dominated by the Western Chalukya Empire and the Chola dynasty.[5] Several battles were fought between the Western Chalukya Empire and the Chola dynasty in the Deccan Plateau during the reigns of Raja Raja Chola I, Rajendra Chola I, Jayasimha II, Somesvara I and Vikramaditya VI.[6]
Seuna dynasty 12th-14th century[edit]
The Yadavas of Devagiri Dynasty was an Indian dynasty, which at its peak ruled a kingdom stretching from the Tungabhadra to the Narmada rivers, including present-day Maharashtra, north Karnataka and parts of Madhya Pradesh, from its capital at Devagiri (present-day Daulatabad in modern Maharashtra). The Yadavas initially ruled as feudatories of the Western Chalukyas. [7] The founder of the Suena dynasty was Dridhaprahara, the son of Subahu. According to Vratakhanda, his capital was Shrinagara. However, an early inscription suggests that Chandradityapura (modern Chandor in the Nasik district) was the capital.[8] The name Seuna comes from Dridhaprahara's son, Seunachandra, who originally ruled a region called Seunadesha (present-day Khandesh). Bhillama II, a later ruler in the dynasty, assisted Tailapa III in his war with the Paramara king Munja. Seunachandra II helped Vikramaditya VI in gaining his throne. Around the middle of the 12th century, as the Chalukya power waned, they declared independence and established rule that reached its peak under Singhana II. The Yadavas of Devagiri patronised Marathi[9] which was their court language.[10][11] Kannada may also have been a court language during Seunachandra's rule, but Marathi was the only court-language of Ramchandra and Mahadeva Yadavas. The Yadava capital Devagiri became a magnet for learned scholars in Marathi to showcase and find patronage for their skills. The origin and growth of Marathi literature is directly linked with rise of Yadava dynasty.[12]
According to scholars such as Prof. George Moraes,[13] V. K. Rajwade, C. V. Vaidya, Dr. A.S. Altekar, Dr. D.R. Bhandarkar, and J. Duncan M. Derrett,[14] the Seuna rulers were of Maratha descent who patronized the Marathi language.[9] Digambar Balkrishna Mokashi noted that the Yadava dynasty was "what seems to be the first true Maratha empire".[15] In his book Medieval India, C.V.Vaidya states that Yadavas are "definitely pure Maratha Kshatriyas".
Islamic Rule[edit]
Islamic rule came to the region with the Khilji dynasty in the 14th century. The Tughlaq Dynasty that followed the Khiljis tried to move their capital from Delhi to Daulatabad in Central Maharashtra with disastrous consequences. Later from 15th century, the Bahamani Sultanate and its offshoots, the Nizamshahi of Ahmadnagar, Adilshahi of Bijapur and the Qutubshahi of Govalkonda ruled different parts of the region until they were either swallowed by the Moghul empire or by the emerging Maratha forces in the second half of 17th Century.
The Marathas[edit]
The Marathas dominated the political scene in Maharashtra from the middle of the 17th century to the early 19th century. Although for historical purposes the term 'Maratha' is used in a comprehensive sense to include all Marathi-speaking people, actually the word signifies the distinct community which has dominated the political scene of Maharashtra since medieval times.
References to the Marathas and their country are found in accounts by the Arab geographer, Al Biruni (1030 AD), Friar Jordanus (c. 1326) and Ibn Batuta (1340), the African traveller. The Marathas came into political prominence in the 17th century under Shivaji.
Raja Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj[edit]
Shivaji maharaj was an able warrior and established a government that included such modern concepts as cabinet (Ashtapradhan mandal), foreign affairs (Dabir) and internal intelligence. Shivaji established an effective civil and military administration. He also built a powerful navy and erected new forts like Sindhudurg and strengthened old ones like Vijayadurg on the west coast. The Maratha navy held its own against the British, Portuguese and Dutch till Maratha internal conflict brought their downfall in 1756.
Shivaji is well known for his fatherly attitude towards his subjects. He believed that the state belonged to the people. He encouraged all socio-economic groups to participate in the ongoing political changes. To this day he is remembered as a just and welfare-minded king. He brought revolutionary changes in military, fort architecture, society and politics. Because of his struggle against an imperial power, Shivaji became an icon of freedom fighters (along with the Rani of Jhansi) in the Indian independence struggle that followed two centuries later. He is remembered as a just and wise king and his rule is called one of the six golden pages in Indian history.
School texts in Maharashtra glorify Shivaji's period and he is considered the founder of the modern Marathi nation; his policies were instrumental in forging a distinct Maharashtrian identity. Indeed, Marathi Hindus, Dalits, Muslims, Christians and Buddhists, all consider him as a hero. A popular quotation,
"Maratha tituka milavava
Maharashtra Dharma vadhavava"
translates as, "Bring as many people into Maratha domain as possible and grow the Maharashtra Nation".
Expansion of Maratha Influence under Shahu 1 rule[edit]
The death of Aurangzeb in 1707 after an exhausting 27 years of war against Marathas led to the swift decline of the Moghul empire. The Marathas, under the leadership the Bhat family of Peshwas, rapidly filled the power vacuum and occupied much of the subcontinent in the following decades.
The Peshwa era (1749 to 1761)[edit]
During this era, Peshwas belonging to the (Bhat) Deshmukh Marathi Brahmin family controlled the Maratha army and later became the hereditary rulers of the Maratha Empire from 1749 to 1818. During their rein, the Maratha empire reached its zenith ruling most of the Indian Subcontinent. Prior to 1700, one Peshwa received the status of imperial regent for eight or nine years. They oversaw the greatest expansion of the Maratha Empire around 1760 with the help of Sardars like Holkar, Scindia (Shinde), Bhosale, and Gaekwad(Dhane). Other Generals such as Pantpratinidhi, Panse, Vinchurkar, Pethe, Raste, Phadke, Patwardhan, Pawar, Pandit, Purandare and Mehendale also played important part in the expansion. The areas controlled by the peshwa were annexed by the British East India Company in 1818.
Maharashtra under British rule and The Freedom Movement[edit]
The British East India Company slowly expanded areas under its rule during the 18th century. Their conquests of what is Maharashtra was completed in 1818 with the defeat of Peshwa Bajirao II in the Third Anglo-Maratha War.
Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, the first Law Minister of India, an erudite scholar with a number of doctorates, and a Barrister, championed the cause of Depressed Classes of India, the lower caste population who were oppressed for centuries. Dr. Ambedkar disagreed with mainstream leaders like Gandhi on issues including untouchability, government system and Partition of India. This did not prevent him from struggling for the rights of his brethren among the lower castes of the country. His leadership of Dalit or Depressed Classes, lead to the Dalit movement that still endures. Dr. Ambedkar most importantly played the pivotal role in writing the constitution of India and hence he is considered as the father of the Indian Constitution.
Lokmanya Tilak played a major role in the Indian independence movement. He was widely recognised as a leader of national importance & a man of method. Being a person with an extremist attitude, he was instrumental in encouraging the Indian masses in participating in the freedom struggle.
A popular quotation:
Swarajya ha majha janmasiddha hakka ahe, ।
ani toh mi milavnarach! ।।
Swaraj (self-rule) is my birthright & I will achieve it!
The ultimatum in 1942 to the British to "Quit India" was given in Mumbai, and culminated in the transfer of power and the independence of India in 1947. Raosaheb and Achutrao Patwardhan, Nanasaheb Gore, S.M. Joshi, Yeshwantrao Chavan, Swami Ramanand Bharti, Nana Patil, Dhulappa Navale, V.S. Page, Vasant Patil, Dhondiram Mali, Aruna Asif Ali, Ashfaqulla Khan and several others leaders from Maharashtra played a prominent role in this struggle. BG Kher was the first Chief Minister of the tri-lingual Bombay Presidency in 1937.

Date of Stay: March, 2015 - $52.00
This has been the worst parks we've stayed in for some time. Very expensive ($53.42 x 16 nights) with poor services. A back-in gravel pad with deep tire ruts from the last person who sunk in, poorly placed services that we could barely reach, and full trashcans not due to be emptied for another week (2 weeks for recycle). The site was barren gravel with no grass, patio, or table. If we were not here to visit friends who just bought a park model here, I'd would have moved on upon seeing the site. We camped at Monte Vista RV Resort in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: October, 2014 - $20.00
Mostly park models with a few rv sites mixed in. We liked this park, it as quiet and the sites were very big. The hook-ups all worked well but it was hard to determine which water hook-up went with the site. Very friendly neighbors and staff. Nice roads but are a little narrow for maneuvering into back in sites if you have a large rig but doable. We camped at Monte Vista RV Resort in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: April, 2013 - $32.00
Level gravel sites. A friendly mix of park models & RV sites. Attractive pueblo-style buildings. Clear pool with waterfalls and soft music. We rode our bikes to the grocery store along the convenient path, and around the safe park streets each evening. We will stop here again. We camped at Monte Vista RV Resort in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: March, 2013 - $58.00
This place is massive, a real village, and with that comes all kind of amenities. (2 pools, water aerobics, golf, horse shoes, pottery & jewelry making classes.) The sites were very large, enough room to have our towed car next to the rig, once we unhitched. The park was clean and quiet, the residents were friendly to those passing through, even offered free lemons from their tree. The park was convenient to downtown, and had a shopping center next door (grocery, restaurant, etc.). We camped at Monte Vista RV Resort in a Motorhome.
Date of Stay: February, 2012 - $20.00
TTN Guest Rate. This is a fantastic destination resort with RV visitor spaces mixed in with many park model sites. Staff and neighbors are super friendly, there are amenities and activities to boggle the mind. Pools, hot tubs, spas, restrooms and showers are spotless. Laundry on site. Restaurants on site. Sports activities. Gym equipment and programs for fitness and health. There are more bicycles than golf carts in this community. Sites are large enough but rigs must be parked on the crushed rock and tow vehicles and tods must park on the concrete pads. Each site was designed to accommodate a park model and additions. Utilities are convenient at the rear of each site. All streets are paved with room enough to maneuver for parking and backing off the street. You will find a golf cage, tennis courts, shuffleboard, croquet, horseshoes, putting green, billiards, lapidary shop, ceramic room, silversmith shop, wood shop, music room, art room and much more. We would definitely stay here again if we are in the area. We camped at Monte Vista RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.

A pretty river flows past Pleasantview. Its rippling waters reflect clouds and the graceful arches of a bridge. Unless, that is, you're playing Electronic Arts' (ERTS) The Sims 2 video game on an Intel (INTC) computer with underpowered (INTC)graphics. If so, the water appears as a featureless patch of monochromatic blue, and many other graphic subtleties of the game are lost.
My plunge into the world of The Sims was part of an experiment that chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) set up for me out of naked self-interest. AMD is best known as Intel's fierce rival in processors. But it also competes in graphics systems, and AMD—which owns ATI Technologies, a maker of graphics adapters—was seeking to demonstrate its superiority there.
Graphics performance has long been a concern for dedicated gamers and for users of advanced professional software, such as computer-assisted design tools. But it may soon become a lot more important to everyone else. Why? Microsoft's (MSFT) Vista operating system makes far greater use of 3D graphics than does any previous version of Windows. Its features include a "Flip 3D" interface, which lets you page quickly through all the windows open on your system. Microsoft wants software developers to make better use of such capabilities.
AMD set me up with two midrange Velocity Micro desktops, which retail for about $800 each. The two systems are identical except for their processors and graphics adapters. The all-Intel model has a G965 Express graphics chip, while the AMD version uses the company's own ATI Radeon Xpress processor. Both systems run on Windows Vista Home Premium. Just to keep AMD honest, I extended the test to two additional Intel Vista systems of my own, a Lenovo ThinkPad T61 with NVIDIA's (NVDA) Quadro graphics, and a ThinkPad X61s with an Intel GM965 Express display adapter.
THE INTEL 965 FAMILY OF GRAPHICS chips dominates the market for adapters. They are standard in most low- to midpriced desktops and in laptops with Intel processors. And they're just about universal in subcompact notebooks— meaning anything with a display measuring 12 inches or less. They are inexpensive, relatively power-thrifty—a big factor in laptop design—and very popular with manufacturers.
In my tests, all the Intel chips had enough heft to display Vista's spiffy graphics features, such as animated icons and transparent windows. But they fell way short of the ATI and NVIDIA systems in games. The Intel chips don't meet minimum requirements for running Linden Lab's Second Life virtual-world software on Vista.
Most games are designed to inspect the hardware they're running on and adjust graphics features for best performance. You can override The Sims' decision to turn off such features as reflections for Intel 965 graphics, but the images don't look as good as they ought to, and you pay a price in sluggish performance. (When asked to respond, Intel said the 965 chips were not optimized for 3D games, but their performance will be improved when Intel releases new software in a few weeks. Existing owners will be able to download it.)
My advice to shoppers, who typically focus on processor speed and memory, is to pay more attention to graphics. The Intel 965 is fine if your needs are minimal. In a lightweight notebook, where battery life is key, it's probably the only choice.
For better graphics performance, consider a system using ATI or NVIDIA graphics. Unfortunately, model designations are complicated, and there's no single specification to guide you. Examining systems at a computer store should let you see how different systems look running Second Life or The Sims. If something looks good to you in the shop, it will do fine.

This pattern is

This pattern was designed for my husband, who asked for a bright red toque after watching The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou on the flight to Scotland. Made of springy superwash merino wool, the toque is quite long so it can be rolled up and worn like a watch cap, or pulled down to keep the ears warm in a cold wind. It would be more subtle in a darker colour like black or olive, but then the homage to Jacques Cousteau would be lost.

cute, comfy but sole smells weird
"I love the look, they are very comfortable only negative is that whatever the sole is made out of gives the shoe a weird odor. I put mine outside several times to air out...it has gotten better but not gone yet."
May 18, 2013
Perfect for work
"I usually wear a 6.5 but I buy flats a little larger (7 or even 7.5) so I can wear socks with them. These shoes run on the longer side, so I ended up buying them in a size 6! The first time I wore them, they were pushing on my heels a little, but now that I've used them a couple of times, they are very comfy. The rubber soles are nice for grip, but they can get squeaky down the hallways at my work on the floors where they just stripped the wax. I hate it when people can hear me walking from a mile away. Other than that, it's a great shoe and I get a lot of compliments on them."
May 15, 2013
Love them!
"Comfortable and really cute, what more could you want!"

See a Photo of Drake Cooking With Guy Fieri
If pictures could talk, would this one explain why rapper Drake spent the weekend in the kitchen with Guy Fieri? The improbable friends look to be extremely focused on proper plating techniques -- because they're fancy, huh-- and not appearing overly studied in front of the camera. The Instagramed image doesn't note what the two cooked, but the final plate screams donkey sauce. [Instagram via Grub Street]Instagram Not Kosher.

This week as I was recovering from minor surgery, I was unable to do a lot of the things I usually do with and for my kids. While I truly enjoy much of what I do with them, I didn't realize just how much I loved some of the simple little things, until I couldn't do them. Babies and toddlers can be a lot of work, and much of what we do is done over and over and over again, so it can start to seem a little bit old. But I've found that simply by changing my mindset and adding a little bit of something special to a task, I can turn it from something that just needs to "get done" into something I look forward to as a special time with Elvie.
Nothing is a better example of this than walking our errands on Saturdays. In order to get a little exercise in while getting things done, I save the errands that are within walking distance so I can head out on a big walk on Saturday mornings. In the end, some tasks get taken care of, and I get in a little workout. Still, it could be a little boring, except that I've got the world's best errand running assistant. I put Elvie in the stroller facing me, and we have a sweet little outing, just the two of us, every Saturday. Here are some photos from two of our recent Saturday errand walks, with notes on how I made something so potentially mind-numbing into something fun for both of us.

Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. Provides Second Quarter 2013 Production and Operations Update
WAYZATA, Minn., July 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. ("Northern") (NYSE MKT: NOG) is providing a production and operations update for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
Northern's second quarter 2013 production is expected to average approximately 10,900 barrels of oil equivalent per day, down approximately 2% when compared with the first quarter of 2013.
During the second quarter of 2013, Northern added 83 gross (5.7 net) wells to production.
Drilling activity was robust in the second quarter; however, completions were limited due to adverse weather and extended road restrictions. Production was also negatively impacted by producing pads being shut-in as completion operations were underway on adjacent in-fill pads.
As of June 30, 2013, Northern was participating in 1,438 gross (121.5 net) producing wells and an additional 218 gross (17.4 net) wells that were drilling or awaiting completion.
"Net well additions were primarily impacted by road restrictions that lasted much longer than expected this quarter, resulting in only 5.7 net wells completed and added to production during the quarter. However, our drilling and awaiting completion list expanded to 218 gross (17.4 net) wells at the end of June, an increase of 5.2 net wells from the end of March," commented Northern's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Michael Reger. "We are encouraged by the robust drilling activity and expect the backlog of wells in-process to contract and sequential production growth to resume in the third quarter."
Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. is an exploration and production company with a core area of focus in the Williston Basin Bakken and Three Forks play in North Dakota and Montana.

Directed by Hoh Chi-Hang and starring Michael Tao, Fanny Yuan and Wayne Lai, this X-Files inspired thriller has absolutely nothing to do with the Herman Yau directed series of Category III horror movies that starred Anthony Wong. The story focuses on a pair of Hong Kong police officers named Sam and Judy (Lai and Yuan) who throw in the towel and resign from the force so that they can go off and start their own private detective agency. Why would they want to branch out on their own? So that they can focus in on the one area where they excel that the normal police force won't go – the paranormal. Sam's wanted to start looking into the weird and mysterious world and his superiors have always reeled him back in when he's tried to travel down that mystical path. While it might sound difficult to get a business like this up and running, thankfully they have a mysterious and very wealthy benefactor (Tao) who stands in the shadows, never takes off his sunglasses, and who chain smokes. Our cops name their operation Sky Eye Lab, and they open the doors for business. So with Sky Eye Lab ready to roll, it doesn't take long before the strange cases start coming in – sort of. Someone has left a case with some details inside and a whole pile of cash to cover their expenses and then some. Armed with only the simplest of details, our intrepid investigators have to tackle a doozy of a mystery, as it appears that some girls have been disappearing in the area. While at first this might sound like a job for the regular police department to handle, when they start scratching below the surface to see what they can find it turns out that this is all tied into a cult of devil worshippers who have ties to the disappearances and a taste for ritualistic suicide attempts. To complicate matters even more, there are ties to possible aliens and some sort of doomsday plot! If the plot sounds like an episode of The X-Files that would be because this movie borrows from that series pretty liberally, with a little bit of Men In Black and Millenium thrown in for good measure. Why this movie is tagged with the Untold Story banner is a good question, it's possible that the producers were trying to cash in on the popularity of the twisted Herman Yau films, but they're about as opposite as you can get and the only thing that they have in common is the inclusion of some police procedural scenes. Originality isn't one of this movie's strong points. Despite the fact that it more or less copies what has come before it and puts it in Hong Kong instead of North America, Sudden Vanished (an awkward title) is still an entertaining movie, at least on a superfluous level. The leads are fun and Tao is really good as the mysterious 'smoking man' character who knows more than his employees really realize. There's a bit of hamminess to some of the performances but it fits in with the tone of the story in that the script throws in pretty much everything it can and by doing so shoots believability out the window anyway. The direction is odd in that the pacing jumps, then stalls, then jumps again. The middle of the movie does tend to drag a bit but by the time the finale rolls around there's enough going on from so many different angles that you can't help but at least want to know how it is all going to end. The conclusion does set up the series as a continuing effort, for better or worse, and there is potential here for better entries to be made with the same characters should a few tweaks be made to the premise. The DVD
Video: Though the image isn't anamorphic it is letterboxed at roughly 1.85.1 and while it's hardly reference quality, it's watchable, but that's where the praise ends. There are way too many mpeg compression artifacts present in the darker spots throughout the movie and it looks like the picture was shot on a digital video camera. There is some edge enhancement and some aliasing but color reproduction is handled respectably well and skin tones look fine. Hardly a perfect effort, and it will suffice but only because it has to. Audio options are provided in Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo tracks in the film's original Cantonese language as well as in a Mandarin dub. Burned in subtitles come in both English and Chinese at the same time. Audio quality is alright, even if the English subtitles contain some odd typos and strange phrases here and there. There are a few nice instances of channel separation that add to the fun and the levels are well balanced ensuring that the performers don't get buried by the sound effects or the score. Aside from menus and chapter selection, there's nothing else included on this release except a trailer. The presentation leaves a little to be desired, what with the mediocre transfer and the obvious lack of extra features, but The Untold Story – Sudden Vanished is a reasonably entertaining movie even if it rips off the X-Files pretty blatantly. It's not a classic, but it's a fun time killer that's worth a rental. |

Jumping ahead before I am finished with the posts of my trip to Amsterdam.
The night before our flight back to NYC we decided to stay at Schiphol Airport.
I went to the internet and found CitizenM. It looked like fun and yet completely
functional. Two qualities I love. And it was. The rooms are small and designed like
the inside of a watch. Or those Russian dolls where something smaller
is inside the bigger one. This is a hotel where the bedroom is basically a place
to sleep. The bed and pillows were perfect and the sheets felt nice and crisp.
The public spaces in the lobby are where you would like to hang
out and have a drink and sit on their designer furniture.
I just decided I had to see if I could take some pics in the few hours before our flight.
The staff was great. The man behind the coffee machine at breakfast was
so much fun and he had everyone smiling. Check in was efficient and pleasant.
Even the three minute walk from the hotel to the terminal felt special
under a very well designed awning covering the walkway (in Amsterdam you
often need a little protection from Mother Nature's sprinkles).

'What's Hecuba to him?', asks a wondering Hamlet seeing the Player cry 'real tears' at the plight of this long-dead queen.
Ay, that's the question, or several questions: How does this tragic queen affect over time, culture, and language? Why does he (the actor, the rememberer, the witness) weep? Should he (the Player) weep? Or, using Brecht's terms, is that 'barbaric' because the pathos should be bounded rather than being made 'portable'?
Perhaps this chapter is suggesting that pathos in some way—
through sympathy or empathy, through feeling the dentist's drill or through crying in common for one's own ills—communicates and joins role and audience into a commonality. And that that is why there is no closure, for Electra or audience. That trauma recurs because the violence from the past and from off-stage, because the pain,is not dealt with; it is expressed but not incorporated and instead threatens to escape the stage.

Online now: 1 member: Relentless30; 59 anonymousDiscussion: Senior Boombah Bat
Posted | Discussion |
June 22, 2009 Foothills Men's 55 77 posts | Senior Boombah Bat Read on the kids board , that Boombah has a senior bat now . Called them up and they say it is 1.2 compliant . Only $ 140.00 . Orderd one . Can`t go wrong at that price , since senior bats are almost throw aways anyway . If it is any good , they will end up starting a price war in Senior Softball bats . JB |
June 23, 2009 #6 Men's 60 1183 posts | Foothills, Do you know if this is an ASA bat ?I couldn't find that info on their website. Thanks...Kenny |
June 23, 2009 taits Men's 65 4420 posts | Kenny, I really doubt it, here is a link but it doesn't have any useful info on the web site about most of what they sell. Bat ad only says senior bat, so count on it NOT being ok, for ASA. http://boombah.com/s.nl/it.A/id.35286/.f |
June 23, 2009 hitt2 354 posts | Tait Called the company and spoke with a staff member. He stated that the bat was 100% composite and that they manufacture the bat. The young man I spoke with stated that his father uses the bat in the league they play in Chi-Town. He stated it good pop just a little less than a UII or combat. He added a very good league bat for seniors that can't use UII or Combats. Hitts |
June 23, 2009 Foothills Men's 55 77 posts | hitt2---I wonder why they would bother comming out with something not as good as there competition ? Why bother if it isn`t as good . Users would figure it out quick and quit buying the bat . "A little bit less",is a very subjective situation most of the time . |
June 23, 2009 hitt2 354 posts | Foothills The boombah might be putting a focus on ASA senior needs. this company is based in Chicago. From what I've read the mid west and east coast team need ASA bats and this might fit the bill for senior there. Myself I prefer the Combat line of bats for senior. UII's don't work for me. Hitts |
June 23, 2009 SSUSA Staff 1422 posts | Any bat that meets the 1.20 BPF (Bat Performance Factor) standard is eligible for use in SSUSA sanctioned events. To date, the Boombah bats have not met that standard. Some have a designation as BPF: 1.205, which does not meet the standard. We are not aware of the bat's status as an (in)eligible bat with other organizations. |
June 23, 2009 Sundevil2 17 posts | The new Boombah senior bat has the 1.20 bpf stamp. I think it hits better than the Combat senior bats. |
June 23, 2009 taits Men's 65 4420 posts | hitt2, That didn't answer the question: Is it an ASA legal bat. Which is really two questions because there are some ASA SENIOR TOURNAMENTS that allow the "senior" bats, but not all. The tourneys i had through ASA allowed all our bats, but some (many) do not because of city restrictions. So it would depend on where or which city. Boombah probable didn't tell you either. They sponsor U-trip tournaments which is\are not really Senior tournaments, I'd bet CE Composites is really the maker but under or with the Boombah specs. |
June 23, 2009 Sundevil2 17 posts | I don't know to many details. What I do know is the bat is not ASA or USSSA legal. Also the bat is not made by CE or Combat. I know this because I was part of the testing before it was a Boombah bat. As I said before the bat has a great feel and for me and some others a little better performance than the Combats. The U2 is still the best but this comes very close. Mind has well over 1000 hits and is going strong. |

June 24, 2009 Foothills Men's 55 77 posts | Sundevil2--Have one ordered . Will be testing soon . Have used all senior bats extensively . Do not agree with you , that Ultra 11 is still the best . The yellow Combat is as good as any Ultra . The Launch is its equal also . Same bat with a 1 In. longer barrel . I personally swing the Launch over the Ultra , because the flared knob , is more comfortable with the overhand grip . JB |
June 24, 2009 hitt2 354 posts | Foothills - Taits The person I spoke to stated Bombah bat was being used in an ASA league. IF this bat is better that the Combat MM let me know. I doubt it to be so. The launch is a good bat, but they break too quickly. For your type of grip that is a good bat. I wish they offered the flare on the combat MM and grey models. The MM once broke in after about 75 swings I agree is as hot as an UII. Hitt2 |
June 24, 2009 Sundevil2 17 posts | As a side note we found the Boombah bat takes about 200 or so hits to break in. Very stiff to start but opens up well. I guess that all the senior bats are close and it comes down to the feel. I like the Boombah feel better than the yellow Combat while other don't. Overall as I said before it hits well and holds up but that is my humble opinion. |
June 28, 2009 Gallardo 16 posts | I have hit the senior Boombah. The bat is very stiff out of the wrapper and needs 100-150 swings to open up. The bat is priced very well and it's on par with other senior bats but not an Ultra or Boombah Cannon outlaw bat. |
June 29, 2009 Fred Scerra Men's 80 542 posts | If it is a Senior bat it would be banned in ASA and Utrip also. If it is like the other Senior bats it will no Assoc approvals on it. |
June 29, 2009 Fred Scerra Men's 80 542 posts | Here is the link to the bat. As you can see there are no Assoc markings on it that you can see. http://www.boombah.com/s.nl/it.A/id.35286/.f |
June 29, 2009 Sundevil2 17 posts | On the Boombah senior bat the 1.20 bpf stamp can only be seen by a grandchild or micoscope. Don't ask me why they made it so small but it is there. |

Recipe by: TISHNERIC
Original recipe yields 16 servings
Amount per serving ({{servings}} total)
Based on a 2,000 calorie diet
Sort stores by
Ready In
Ok - I changed the recipe quite a bit, and I know a lot of people hate that, but personally, I always appreciate it when people add onto recipes -- reading people's changes has REALLY strenghtened my own cooking skills. So that said, I'm going to give my changes here! I used the full 8 oz of cream cheese and 1 can of flaked crab meat (drained). I was out of garlic salt so used 1/2 tsp garlic powder and 1/2 tsp of seasoned salt instead (2 tsp seemed like an awful lot!). I also stirred in two chopped green onions. I used the suggestion of another reviewer and rather than frying filled won ton wrappers, I spooned 1 T of refrigerated croissant dough into mini-muffin cups, filled each cup with the mixture, and baked for about 15 minutes. Too much crab for a Chinese crab puff, in my opinion (I've always had them with mostly cream cheese), but ignoring the original intent of the recipe, I REALLY like the idea of having "portable" crab dip appetizers! I will make them this way again for parties!
I thought these needed some other seasonings, so I cut the garlic salt by half and added some Cavender's Greek Seasoning, parmesan cheese, and some green onion. For those that don't eat fried foods I put puff pastry into mini muffin cups then put about a teaspoon of the crab mixture in it and baked it for about 15 minutes at 375F.
Would have given it 5 stars, but it needed fresh crushed garlic and chopped green onion. Make sure you serve these immediately after frying. They need to be hot and crisp. Thanks.

Wow. It should change trajectory with temp changes. Will it loose mass when heated? Is it possible it may capture an orbit around our earth or other near orb? Please give us more science information and terms. Thanx!
What is loose mass?
That asteroid is going to pass close enough to earth for O'Malley to try and tax it.
If your house and/or property is struck by an asteroid, sadly we will have to impose the asteroid tax! I am Martin O'Malley and I approve this message.
Would solve the budget crisis
it would be total insanity. Look at New Orleans when Katrina hit. There was looting beyond your wildest dreams. Can you imagine if this thing hit earth? All I can say is, stock up on food and ammo! Your biggest fear would be people.
like the dinosaurs we will be extinct also with asteroids.

When other methods of clearing blocked arteries have failed or there are several severe blockages, a physician may decide bypass surgery is the best treatment option.Coronary artery bypass surgery takes a healthy blood vessel from another location in the body (usually the leg) and grafts it to the blocked coronary artery to create a detour for blood to flow around the blockage. It is not unusual for surgeons to perform more than one bypass at a time to correct numerous blockages. During surgery, the heart is stopped and connected to a heart-lung machine, which works in place of the heart and lungs to circulate blood throughout the body, allowing the surgeon to perform the bypass.Innovations in recent years, including endoscopic vein harvesting, beating heart surgery and the sutureless aortic connector, have revolutionized the way traditional artery bypass surgery is performed. These new innovations allow surgeons to perform bypasses less invasively, thus reducing complications and improving recovery time for some patients.

Best Hot Dog (2009)
Old Fashioned Italian Deli
The guys at the Old Fashioned know from good hot dogs. Why? Because they're from Buffalo, a city that knows from good dogs. Here, they're Sahlen's brand, boiled to a beautiful, ruddy pink and served on a simple bun, with a little twist of casing that makes a tail at both ends. The standard at the Old Fashioned is "flying with everything," which means topped with Buffalo's own Weber's horseradish mustard, dog sauce and jalapeños and much more, taken to go. But we prefer our dog naked, with just a shot of Weber's. And we like to eat it here, where the setting is as authentic as the dogs: slightly grungy, with walls covered with pictures of Marilyn Monroe, mismatched tablecloths, Sopranos memorabilia, and shelves loaded down with pastas, canned tomatoes and other Italian dry goods.
